WKYC-TV has won the regional Edward R. Murrow Award for "Overall Excellence" in television news. This is about the highest award a news operation can receive, and it covers the stations in 4 states: Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, and Indiana.
This means our news operation in 2006 was judged to be better than any other - including stations in cities like Chicago, Detroit, Columbus, etc.
The Award encompasses all aspects of the news operation (including newscasts), spot news, special projects, community involvement, sports, and weather.
The official presentation will be made next week.
